Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 964 Sudden News of Frontier Beacon (seeking monthly ticket)
This year's [-]th National Congress will definitely be much colder than previous years.

Those who are qualified to participate in the grand banquet held on the [-]th National Day of the Imperial Palace are quite troubled at this time, wondering if their own bones can hold it?

Especially for someone as old as Jia's mother, it's not a joke to catch a cold.

It is estimated that it is a headache even today.

If an old man with poor health had an accident during the palace banquet, the royal family would lose face.

If it is not done well, it will attract a wave of resentment from the courtiers.

But I didn't want to, on the day of the New Year's Eve, a very bad news came from the northeast and northwest frontiers: Hu Qi Kou Bian!

For a while, now I am angry and angry!
With such an incident, the palace banquet on the night of the New Year's Eve can naturally be cancelled, but the current mood is very bad.

After working hard for a hundred years, the frontier fortress war suddenly restarted when he was the emperor. Doesn't it seem that he is very unlucky as an emperor?

In fact, the two frontier fortresses went to war at the same time, and things were far worse than imagined today.

If it is not done well, there will be a major reshuffle of the frontier armies in both places.

Even if someone else takes over halfway, they are all the confidantes of the two founding fathers, and it is impossible for outsiders to get involved.

"Why is this?"

At that time, Wang Ziteng didn't even have a title on him!

Mrs. Zhao pondered: "Both sides suddenly launched together, and the attack was swift and fierce, with a desperate posture, maybe they were really forced to rush!"

"In order to survive, naturally we can only compete for living supplies from the frontier towns of Dagan, how can we not work hard?"

The first time today, the cabinet leaders were invited to the palace to discuss matters.

"It's winter, why do the barbarians on both sides still want to fight?"

That's right, it's defense rather than active offense!
As for the reason, it is similar to the previous dynasties of the Central Plains. It is really that the expedition outside the Great Wall cost the people money, and the national finances could not withstand it.

"Is that so?"

However, Dagan also deployed heavy defenses along the Northwest Great Wall and at important strategic locations.

The intensity of the battle at the two frontier fortresses was beyond imagination.

As a core member of the founding nobles, once there is a major reshuffle in the frontier army, the Ning Mansion will naturally have the opportunity to send people there.

The Jia family in its heyday must have such energy and strength.

The battle report was immediately sent to the Ministry of War and the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army, which were firmly controlled by the founding group.

From the situation of the founding Xungui family, we can see that the ability of generals from the Xungui family is very average.

What is really valued today is Hu Qi in the northwest direction!

Otherwise, why didn't the Jia family arrange for him to join the army when they were cultivating the third-generation successor, Grand Master She?
Given the status and influence of the Jia family in the Beijing camp and the frontier army, even if Mr. Xi is a complete trash, he can still become a high-ranking general and take charge of the power of an army.

Under such circumstances, it is normal to be in a hurry or even panic when suddenly encountering a fierce attack from a nomadic tribe outside the Great Wall.

That's right, whether it's the Northeast or the Northwest frontier, the generals of the frontier army are all from the Xungui family, or have a fairly close relationship with the Xungui family.

Although the evening palace banquet was cancelled, as the patriarch of the Jia clan in the capital, there are still many things to be busy.

In the absence of major battles, it is not generally difficult for peasant children to be promoted through military exploits, unless they are the sons of luck.

It's a pity that the deposed prince made Jia's family miserable.

The Jurchens in the northeast frontier rushed out of the deep mountains, old forests, and lairs in various places like crazy, and rushed directly towards the frontier towns where the Dagan frontier army was stationed.

There are some with outstanding abilities, but they are only a small number. The abilities of the rest of the generals can only be said to be mediocre, and that is the case if they reach the passing line.

Jia Rong said at this time: "However, the loss must not be small!"

If you really want to stand firm in the army, you must deploy credible personnel.

The battle report was a bit vague, but one can feel from the lines that the intensity of the war is definitely not the same as in the past.

Because the time is too short and there is no war, it is not an ordinary difficulty for a military attache to be promoted.

The Jia family has been away from the army for more than [-] years. The veterans of the founding period have completely died. Even the generals in the army during the second generation Rong Guogong Jia Daishan's time are also withered badly, which means that the Jia family is in the army. Influence quickly declined.

Why is the Jia family in the capital city, before the Ning Rong Second Mansion, so awesome?
Not only the head of the eight founding princes, but also the four kings with different surnames have to give enough face?
Not from the two ancestors Jia Yan and Jia Yuan, to the second generation of Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan, the Jingying Jiedushi was almost monopolized by the Jia family.

If it weren't for the cold weather in the northeast region, the low level of development, and the harsh natural environment, which is not suitable for the army to stay for a long time, I am afraid that the Jurchens would have been wiped out long ago.

As a core member of the founding noble group, the Ning Mansion was naturally the first to know the news of the start of the war between the two frontier fortresses in the Northeast and Northwest.

There are still things that have not been said, and the investment in the frontier army can only be said to be mediocre after working hard for peace for a hundred years.

When the two frontier fortresses fought together, their chance came.

From Jia Rong's point of view, it is better for middle and high-level generals to be transferred frequently for troops like the frontier army, so as to avoid any troublesome things that are difficult to deal with.

The purpose is very clear, that is to destroy and weaken the nomadic forces in the northwest.

If they want to become senior generals in the army, the price they need to pay is not ordinary.

The frontier army and the Beijing camp are field troops, and their status is fundamentally different.

Qin Keqing also became interested, and while teasing the child in the nanny's arms, she asked curiously: "I heard that no matter whether it's the Northeast or Northwest frontier, it's very cold in winter!"

"Didn't Miss Qin just say that whether it's the northeast or the northwest, it's freezing to death in winter, and there may be severe natural disasters in both places!"

Jia Rong planned that the Jia family who had done well among the generals and had decent ability in martial arts would be sent to the frontier to fight, hoping that they could fight their way out.

When I got the news, Jia Rong was having dinner with the three hostesses in the mansion. After all, it's New Year's Eve, so we should have a good meal at noon.

What makes me most uncomfortable and angry today is that the Northeast Frontier Army has lost several frontier towns, all of which were taken by the Jurchens by surprise.

Otherwise, why did Wang Ziteng in the story of the Red Chamber, after becoming the governor of the Beijing camp, be so emboldened and dare to challenge the position of the cabinet boss?

For Ning Mansion, it is naturally a good thing.

Because of the special winter weather in the Northeast, the frontier army towns had hoarded a large amount of food, grass and ordnance early on, and it turned out that it was all cheap for the Jurchens who suddenly broke out.

That time, the Mongolian army that retreated to the grassland reoccupied the former Ming capital, plundered the entire northern region, and collected countless wealth and supplies.

However, relying on the sinister natural environment of white mountains and black waters, the Jurchens have been harassing the Northeast region controlled by Dagan, forcing Dagan to station many troops in the northeast.

Not to mention the nonsense of Wang Ziteng's extraordinary ability, with the energy and status of the Wang family at that time, it was extremely difficult for Wang Ziteng to rise to the top.

Don't look at Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding, who has become the commander of the salt soldiers who are directly in charge of the army, but that is just a local garrison boss, just like Wang Ziteng's local garrison boss before.

There is no need to say these words to the three mistresses in the mansion, lest they disturb their minds and worry too much about the affairs of the mansion and the clan.

The war broke out quite suddenly, and it was obvious that the other party was not prepared.

The loss of the frontier army was about [-], and the most important thing was the food, grass and weapons hoarded in those fallen towns.

He has had an unstable life this year, and the cabinet bosses don't want to live comfortably!
However, while waiting for the cabinet bosses to come over, the face of today who carefully read the detailed battle report became more and more ugly.

If some influence is restored in the army, the momentum and energy of the Ning Mansion will not be the same as in the past.

Combining the two times, the number of frontier troops lost exceeded [-]!
Even today, it is quite painful.

Even if some old men in the army are willing to give the Jia family some face, it is just a so-called so-called personal connection that is quite vain.

The effect is quite obvious, otherwise how can there be a hundred years of peace?

It is also because of this that the Mongolian forces in the northwest have always been the center of defense of the Central Plains Dynasty, and they dare not be careless in the slightest.

Although the battle report said that the sudden eruption of the Jurchens would cause even greater losses, would you care about such a prevarication?

It's just that this time, I don't know what happened to the tribes outside the Great Wall in the northwest, and they directly mobilized more than 30 troops to attack several important frontier towns.

It's a pity that the period of its rise was the most glorious time for Dagan Taizu. When the Central Plains was unified again, he was beaten by the Dagan and powerful army and it was almost difficult to raise his head.

It can be said that Jingying was the private plot of the Jia family at that time.

Including grandmother Zhao, stepmother You and Qin Keqing, they will all be busy with family affairs at that time, and may not be able to eat in peace.

However, after a hundred years of peace, the nomadic tribes outside the Northwest Great Wall have started a long-term recuperation mode despite constant internal melee.

At least, with the level of weapons of nomadic tribes, there is basically not much possibility.

But that's the case, people are desperately trying to survive, and the frontier troops stationed at the frontier will definitely suffer heavy losses if they are caught off guard.

The northeast area controlled by Dagan is vast, but the total number of frontier troops is only in the early [-]s, which shows its importance.

In the past, it was just a small fight. How could they have imagined that they would suddenly erupt and hit the Northeast Frontier Army by surprise.

Jia Rong is not as particular about the Red Chamber natives. Things like the frontier battle report will be publicized in the future. Why hide it from the family?

These are naturally clear today, after all, Dagan has never stopped paying attention to the Northwest Great Wall.

Qin Keqing was stunned, and frowned, "If that's the case, I'm afraid the battle will be fierce, and I don't know if the frontier can stop it?"

As long as someone becomes a high-ranking general by relying on his military exploits, the situation of Jia's family will be very different from before.

In addition to today's trust, there is also the Jingying Jiedushi, who is the real commander of the field troops, who can determine the existence of the universe at critical moments.

Grandmother Zhao was well-informed, and said calmly: "It is precisely because it is winter that those barbarians are able to go to war like crazy!"

The former Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the Mongolian forces in the northwest, and of course it had to have the cooperation of the famous God of War of the Ming Dynasty.

There are a large number of important defense towns in the northwest frontier, and the total number of frontier troops exceeds 20. It is quite effective in preventing the impact of the tribes outside the Northwest Great Wall.

In the current ruling period, the strength of the nomadic tribes in the Northwest has been considerable.

"Just like the capital city this winter, once such a situation occurs, survival may become a problem!"

However, as far as he knew, the defensive measures of the frontier towns were very complete. As long as there was no dereliction of duty or unexpected incidents of internal and external cooperation, it would be extremely difficult to break through.

Similar to the pattern of the rise of all nomadic tribes in history, a powerful leader emerged from the tribe, and then suddenly rose in the Northeast at the end of the war in the Central Plains.

In the story of the Red Chamber, the Jia family gave their contacts in the Beijing camp to Wang Ziteng, and as a result, Wang Ziteng successfully became the governor of the Beijing camp, which shows the great energy of the Jia family in the Beijing camp.

Of course, it is also because the Jia family's influence in the military is too great, which may have caused the emperor's uneasiness.

"It shouldn't be a problem to block it!"

Not only that, the Ningrong Second Mansion is also quite influential among the frontier troops.

In recent years, the Jia clan has cultivated quite a few martial arts talents, and most of them entered the Beijing camp as low-level military officers.

Regardless of whether it was Ming Taizu and Ming Chengzu in the pre-Ming period, or the two emperors Taizu and Taizong in the Dagan period, once the Central Plains unified and the domestic order was stable, they would immediately lead an army to expedition outside the Great Wall.

If it weren't for the obvious decline of Mongolia at that time, and the lack of strength to take over the Central Plains, I am afraid that there will be no century of wars in the future.

The Jurchens are an alliance of nomadic, fishing and hunting tribes that have suddenly emerged in the past few decades between the white mountains and black waters of the Northeast.

Sure enough, stepmother Youshi was very surprised, put down her chopsticks and said something.

From the battle report, it can be seen that the opponent was a desperate attack. Almost all the fortresses set up by the frontier army outside the important town fell, and the loss of more than [-] troops.

At this time, all the cabinet chiefs rushed over to discuss the two frontier wars with today. Don't think about it this year.

Today, the Jurchen is not taken too seriously, but this time it is a bit of a face-slap.

It can be said that apart from the four kings with different surnames, the Jia family was the first military family during the founding of the Dagan Empire.

The same is true, most of the martial arts talents trained by the Jia clan are still at the bottom of the army at this time, and only a few are lucky enough to become middle-level officers.

Anyway, he will give it the opportunity, but if the children in the clan are unable to take it, they will not be good to him.

This matter, it can let the West Mansion next door get some air, let them send a message to the other three families, and see how they react.

Although the opportunity is rare, it also needs to take great risks to fight...

　One hundred votes is still two thousand votes. Next month, there will be two lottery draws. Brothers, help me to top it up, and I will give out red envelopes later.
